Using Econometrics: A Practical Guide and EViews (5th Edition),   ISBN:9780321369260

Customer Rating: 

Studenmund has written a great undergraduate textbook for students wishing to use econometrics as a research tool. The book is light on math and doesn't offer any in depth discussion of the statistical theory behind econometrics. The book focuses on single-equation linear regression analysis with panel and time series data. I would recommend the book to beginning undergraduate econ students as well as business students and anyone in the social sciences.

Customer Rating: 

I looked into getting the 4th edition of this book because it's very cheap (i.e old edition). The text in both of these books is very very similar and indeed some parts are literally the same. Some sections of this book have pretty clear explanation, yet others seem to lack true substance. I would say if you are reading this book for pleasure its passable. If you are using it for a class and won't be doing the exercises at the end of each section; look into purchasing the 4th edition.

It is a require for my class next sem, but the software with it, eview, can't handle large database like others can.

This is one of the better text books I have ever come across. If you need this for a class, feel lucky that your professor chose this and if you are buying it for "fun," pick this one.
